    Apologies thought it was 2 - 0 in MMA.

    Regardless it'll still sell by the bucketload.

    Way too early for her.

    AT&T Stadium is Cowboys Stadium, no?

    See UFC has lost its nerve and not gone with AT & T stadium.

    Wrestlemania is there the next year and it's looking to get 110,000 people to the event. Was talk of UFC trying to steal their thunder. Would have been good to see.

    Aldo vs Mcgregor
    Weidman vs Rockhold.

    December 12th, UFC 194.

    Will end up being

    Mcgregor vs Edgar.
    Rockhold vs Jacare.

    MMA Gods do not respect championship cards.

    Rousey did a Reddit AMA last night and basically said she knows for a fact that Cyborg can cut weight to 135, as her nutritionist advised Cyborg before he joined the Rousey camp. Its all about money apparently.

    Rousy knows Cyborgs fights lose the promoter money and as such her, and she also knows that Cyborg will have to fight her eventually due to this fact.

    Its all the same story that every fight in history seems to have had. Money.

    The Ronda effect eh.

    Plenty of talk of Cyborg cutting weight and making a go of it. Will have a fight at 135 in Invicta and if she makes it without any "help" she'll get a Ronda fight, providing she ruins Tate again.

    The supposed PPV figures "trending" are utter bull**** .. worse card I have seen in years.

    I know it's sexist in this day and age, but I really can't get into women beating each other up. It's goes against the senses getting jollies from watching women bleed.

    On the other hand when Ronda's up against another ground specialist and they're down going for submissions it's great to watch, they're so much more lithe than the males. Some amazing skills to see.

    They change positions so much quicker and more often than males.

    That's the first womens mma fight i've ever watched. I've been watching MMA since back in the day when it was on bravo and not as main stream. Heard so much talk about Rousey and I have to agree... I found it a bit embarrassing to be honest. Flailing arms everywhere & other girl practically running away.

    I know she's renowned for her submissions etc and she'd kick the living ****e out of me but the boxing technique in comparison to likes of Katie Taylor was on a different level. Maybe I caught her on a bad day?

    No idea Gibbo, saw a tweet saying Dana had mentioned PPV sales "trending higher than 189". All the talk now is Rhonda and Mcgregor v Aldo on the same card for a massive money spinner.

    Aye im with Spud on this one. Shes very good obviously, but the rest of them are terrible, says it all that the biggest fight for her is Tate, again, someone who has she has already dispatched twice.

    Cyborg at a catchweight, or even if cyborg could somehow drop the weight would peak my interest, but until then I couldn't really care less about Rondas fights.

    To the more casual fan you can see the draw though, movie star, pretty attractive woman who just happens to be an animal, people tune into Mayweather knowing he'll probably win too.

    G, the PPV sales guess is being pulled from Google searches isn't it? Chances are the hits would've been flying through just looking for a video of the beating.

    Id be very shocked of it outdoes 189, as that was the strongest card if the year plus the hyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyype train.
